Bundesliga 2025/26: Bayern in goalkeeping crisis after Ulreich injured


Bayern Munich is running out of fit goalkeepers after third-choice keeper Sven Ulreich joined Manuel Neuer and Jonas Urbig on the injury list, the club said on Sunday.

Ulreich, 37, was injured during the 1-1 draw against Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday, suffering an adductor muscle injury, Bayern said in a statement.

He was called up for action following Urbig’s concussion during the midweek Champions League win over Atalanta and amid the continued injury absence of first-choice Neuer.

Teenager Leonard Prescott was on the bench on Saturday, as he was in Italy on Tuesday, and the 16-year-old could potentially earn a start for Wednesday’s return against Atalanta, with Bayern recording a 6-1 win from the first leg.

Neuer is working on a comeback after a muscle injury but is unlikely to be fit in Munich on Wednesday. Urbig is expected to return next week.
